Summary/Abstract: The paper represents a comparative analysis of perceptions of labour migrants in Yugoslav and Italian feature films after the Second World War. During the Cold War era Italy and socialist Yugoslavia belonged to the major exporters of labour force. Consequently, the film industries of both countries created a set of perception of the Gastarbeitertravellers. The research compares images of Yugoslav and Italian migrants in Italian and Yugoslav movies during the Cold War.
